I get the same problem. Whenever the "conditional page eject" is 
applied, the "Skip line if blank" does not work in the next header.

I think part of the problem is that you are misusing "conditional page 
eject". It's purpose is to start a record on a new page, if it will not 
all fit on the existing page. That means it should be placed as the 
first line of the report, or it will give strange results.

But even if you do that, you still get failure of "Skip line if blank" 
whenever the "conditional page eject" is applied. I think you may have 
uncovered a bug.
